Scars are formed when wounds penetrate to the thicker layers of skin and the deeper the wound, sometimes the darker the scar. Dark scars are formed from scar tissue that is made of tough, fibrous cells referred to as fibroblasts and unfortunately it can differ greatly in appearance to the skin that it replaced. After a wound has had some healing time, the scar that can form is commonly red in color and in some cases, raised. This is considered normal in the skin’s recovery process and most scars over a period of time can begin to fade and diminish, however, there is a treatment that is available from ScarOut that can help to speed up the process and it is called InvisiScar™.
Many people first turn to a topical treatment and there are literally hundreds if not thousands to choose from. Most are just that, topical, and do not sufficiently fade or diminish the scar. There are many other expensive and invasive procedures that tend to empty the wallet faster than the scar disappears, and why go to all that trouble when InvisiScar™ is affordable and really works? This product has been used since the 1980’s in helping burn victims and other patients to effectively remove, diminish and fade scars no matter how long you have had them or how large they may be.

InvisiScar™ is a silicone scar sheet or patch that has been clinically proven to be the best way to get rid of dark scars. Surgery scars, burn scars and chemical scars are the type of darker scars that can be treated with the silicon sheet or patch and generally, within three weeks of treatment you will begin to see the scar change color and start to fade.
Using the InvisiScar™ silicone sheet or patch is simple, and each sheet or patch is customizable as in you are able to trim each patch to fit any size scar or affected area completely. When beginning treatment, first wash the scar area and the patch or sheet itself with mild soap and water and both the affected area and the silicon patch or sheet should be completely dry before using. If you need to trim the sheet or patch, just make sure that you allow at least a ¼” to ½” of overlap the edges of the scar. You can use either side of the patch or sheet and secure it to your body by using the hypoallergenic tape that come included with each purchase.
Start by using the InvisiScar™ silicone sheet or patch for 1-2 hours per day for the first 2 or 3 days. As you become more comfortable wearing the patch or sheet, start to increase the time the patch is applied to the scar area until you are able to wear it for as many hours as possible each day. With diligence and consistency, it won’t be long until you start to see the desired results!
